The Second Assortment

I'm looking forward to the Black Lanner, because that's a solid design.

Mike

I appreciate that they're spaced a bit further apart than in Collection 1. Makes all the gloroiusness easier to discern.

Mike

So Ironwind IS getting ready to produce the first 9 mechs in glorious metal?

Tyler Erickson

Oops, read that as Second Amendment on first pass. You know, the Second Amendment of the Starleague, the right to rip off mech's arms (then subsequently beat them about the head with their own fist).

Andrew Tate

yes I agree. it IS Clan invasion time, and the Infiltrator I and Sloth were being Deployed prior to the Battle of Tukayyid. the prototype IS Standard Suits were deployed in several raids prior to 3051 and the IS Standard deployed just after the Battle of Luthien. if you take "Clan Invasion" to mean from the Raid on the Rock to the Battle of Tukayyid (The official definition is much more expansive) they would fit in the timeline just fine.

James Bixby

It´s Clan Invasion time...as much as I would like to get cool BA for my IS troops this would have beeen the wrong timeline. Maybe we get another themed KS or release for the fedcom civil war time or even later.

Henning Boessler

In hindsight, it is a shame we couldn’t get infiltrator, sloth and IS Standard/Gorilla suits as a stretch goal

James Bixby

AVENGERS! ASSEMBLE!

James Bixby

Thanks for clearing that up.

Tyler Erickson

You mean metal versions of the core GoAC mechs are in the works?

Tyler Erickson

Whoa whoa, Tyler. A simple petition isn't going to speed things up. A great many things need to be considered and there's a lot more limitations than just time. I'm not going to pretend to know the full process, but I doubt just having the digital models is enough to kick things off. And to answer your previous question, GoAC stands for Game of Armoured Combat, which is the core box set.

Malintus

GoAC Is "Game of Armored Combat", so the models in the boxed set. I can tell you that nothing can make them go faster right now. I was there in January, and during my talks with their Customer Service person, Melissa, she mentioned repeatedly that they're understaffed. Things will happen as they happen for the moment and there's nothing that can be really done about it.

Raymond White

Wonder if we did something like a petition that that might get them to speed things up. Let them know there is a demand for metal versions and we're getting a wee bit impatient waiting.

Tyler Erickson

GoAC? What does that mean?

Tyler Erickson

Because of how much timelines can vary it's hard for them to say. I can say they're prepping GoAC mechs now.

Anthony Scroggins

Haha. Tired.

Anthony Scroggins

I don't know the name of the manufacturer, but Catalyst Game Labs sells / will be selling them. And later Iron Wind Metals will sell metal versions as opposed to plastic.

Anthony Scroggins

Unfortunately, I don't think any time soon. I was at IWM metals this past fall, and of the several people I asked, nobody was able to give an answer as to when they would be doing metal sculpts. I didn't get any sort of evasive "I'm not allowed to say that now" sort of answer, it was more along the lines of "I don't know at all."

Most of these of these are for the Battletech Clan Invasion kickstarter project. 9 of them have already been released in either the Battletech Beginner's Box, or A Game of Armored Combat sets that were released last year.

Thanks!

Anthony Scroggins, who is manufacturing and selling these Miniatures again?

So many mechs. But when are we get metal versions?

Tyler Erickson

The Linebacker!

What is the mech right next to the Catapult?

I believe Anthony said the Orion was still going through some discussion/redesign on the model.

The prior post has a better view of the Centurion than the poster here.

No Orion in the lineup?

Cent has been posted two days ago with the heavy lance...or do you mean some drawing?

Henning Boessler

Btw from what I can see of the Centurion: glorious. Pax Romania intensifies

Joe Wright

Will we get to see art for the Cent, Black Lanner, and Hankyu? Even if the models are done, it'd be nice to take a look at the art.

Raymond White

what's it like being a wizard

You have the original 14 included the circle is now complete! I love it! I will be able to finally remake my Widows, Foxes teeth, Grey Death Legion and Snords boys and girls! I am giddy beyond all belief! :-D

Robert Moore

Yep, a LOT more to come.

Anthony Scroggins

Soon enough either way, that pack is almost finished.

Anthony Scroggins

Now imaging there being almost twice as many in this picture :)

Anthony Scroggins

I honestly believe I will never be able to paint all Mechs I am getting through this Kickstarter. This is insane! And there are still a ton of Wave 2 Mechs missing on that picture.

Yeah, please show us the Black Lanner!

could you please show us the black lanner? *looks at you like baby yoda*

*has to sit down* that’s a lot of mech I have to paint! Seeing them all together is crazy. Thank you for all the hard work. It’s very exciting to see what’s coming down the line!

Dan Hegarty

Tis a thing of beauty!

Steven Cross

That MAD II, he T H I C C

Joe Wright

Yes indeed.

Anthony Scroggins

That's super impressive!

Andrew Dickinson

Hold on. *squints* Is that a a Hankyu/Arctic Cheetah I see snuck in there between the Commando and Valkyrie?
